Silver Labrador Pocket Watch, Louis Brandt

Silver Labrador pocket watch, Louis Brandt.

The watch has a stem-winding movement, signed Labrador, which is working nicely.

Louis Brandt & Frère produced a range of movements with the Labrador calibre being introduced around 1890, and the Omega a few years later and of course which subsequently gave its name to the brand. Indeed this particular movement has the Omega logo on the regulator.

The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover, this inner cover has a couple of small indentations towards the edge.

The watch measures 51mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is 935 silver and there are Continental hallmarks inside both of the case backs. The inside of the back cover has the Labrador logo, which is very reminiscent of the early Omega logo.

The front of the case has a couple of minor bruises, nothing too serious. The hinged case back has some unevenness, and the letter H has been carefully scratched into the central cartouche.

The acrylic lens is in good condition.

The dial is in lovely condition and has been left blank for the original retailer to add their details.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
